This one sprays and that one mixes!

     We have again been fortunate to add a couple more pieces to our equipment fleet, a 600 gallon mix tank and a 300 gallon tow-behind sprayer. In the past we have had to spray all of our herbicides, wetting agents and fertilizers on the entire golf course with our 175 gallon greens sprayer. Even though it did a great job and was very accurate, we were accumulating too many hours on that machine and were spending way too many man hours mixing and filling up. So with our recent acquisition of the 300 gallon sprayer we are now able to spray a lot more at one time and in turn reduce our man hours. With the addition of the 600 gallon mix tank we have been able to cut down on our mix and load time and the need for mixing product in 5 gallon buckets. Here's a few pictures of our new toys.
